Compassion and Respect

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book addresses complex, highly charged issues of human reproduction. As a practicing physician, I am frequently called upon to broker discussions of such issues. The language of these conversations often makes communication poorly understood and at odds with reaching compassionate conclusions. Mawhinney discusses these issues accurately and in refreshingly matter-of-fact language. Weaved into the medical information is a fascinating discussion of individuality, as contrasted with personhood.”
